Can I, Can I Get Some Headcanons For Zhongli And Ganyu With A Reader Who Has A Hard Time Sleeping? Pls,

hi! could i request a Hu Tao x fem! reader fic where Hu Tao realizes she has feelings for the reader and tries to confess? thank you!

How do I tell her? [Hu Tao x Fem!Reader]

Ofc!! Hope this is okay 🥰

“Little miss Hu Tao? You have been acting strange lately, is everything alright?”

“Of course not Mr Zhongli! I’m sick!” Her hands flapped around, feet padding against the wooden floorboards. Her mind was running a mile a minute, your smile only being the thing she pictured in the back of her mind.

“Oh? Is it contagious?”

Xingqui’s laugh cut through her thoughts. “Hahah, not that kind of sick. she’s got the case of love.”

Zhongli coughed, readjusting his tie as he sighed. “I see, we’ll I have no experience in that department I’m afraid.” Making his way back to his desk to continue some paperwork.

“Expected.”

Hu Tao flopped onto the floor, her hands covering her bright red face as her friends laughed at her suffering. Picking and prying at her to tell them all her feelings while she tried to contain her rapid beating heart.

“So…. [Name] huh?”

“Shut it!”

“Come on Tao! You gotta tell us about her!”

She sighed, sitting up as she crossed her legs. The group of trouble makers cheered, sitting down to join her as they new she was going to spill out all her adoration.

“Jeez, where do I start. She’s just too I don’t know, perfect!”

Xianling nudged Chounyun’s shoulder as she wiggled her eye brows, the three of them stared at the love struck funeral parlour director. They were happy, it was about time she fell in the spiral of love.

Maybe, just maybe they could catch a break from her little pranks if she had someone to keep her in line.

“Start from the beginning, where do you two meet?”

Hu Tao smiled, not even having to think about it since she remembered every second the two of you spent together.

“She was walking back from the harbour before she dropped some of her belongings, of course I went over to help since I’m very polite!”

The group nodded sarcastically, nudging each other as they laughed. She wined, she was nice! Why else would she help people burry their loved deceased ones?

“Okay okay, what happened next?”

She sighed, resting her head in her palm as she stared out into the window. She remembered the smile you gave her as she handed you your stuff, your face was just breathtaking. The most perfect one she has ever seen all across Liyue.

“Her smile? Just perfect, and and and our hands touched! Her hands were so soft, the most delicate fingers too!”

“Uh huh? What else?”

“Oh! And her hair! How could I forget! It looked so beautiful! It really framed her face so well! How could someone just be so perfect.”

Her pupils were basically hearts at this point, the deeply smile really told the group what they needed to know.

“Wow Hu Tao, your in love love.”

“Double love.”

“Mhm mhm”

She shook her head, trying to shake away the thoughts of you that crowded her mind. Fingers coming up to run through her hair while she sighed.

“Love huh?”

They nodded, watching as she fell back with a squeal. Her face was as red as a pyro slime, probably as hot as one too at the thought of being with you.

“If this is what love feels like, I don’t want it to end.”

“Well you have to tell her girl!”

“Yes! Confess your undying love just like all those love novels i have shown you!”

“You two would make a good couple.”

She sat up, her eyes wide as she stared at her friends as if they were crazy.

“Confess?! What! I cant do that! What if, what if she doesn’t like me back.”

“Uhh Tao?”

“I mean [Name] is just so perfect! Too perfect for this world.” Hands covering her ears as she rolled around on the floor, blocking out her friends voices as you took over her thoughts.

“Hey… Hu Tao”

“Like she’s just amazing! You guys don’t understand how much I like her! But I don’t know if she likes me back!”

“Well uhm, you’re about to find out.”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

She sat up, her eyes drifting in the direction her friends were looking. Face turning as white as a ghost as she saw what they were referring too.

“G-good morning Hu Tao, did you forget you invited me over today? Sorry for interrupting.”

There you stood, hands shaking while you held a basket full of fresh fruit you must have picked for this occasion.

Your gaze was looking at your feet, avoiding Hu Tao’s that were staring at your face with wide eyes.

“O-oh hey [Name], how are.. how are you doing?”

Suddenly she was pulled up and pushed in your direction, looking back to Xianling who grabbed the others and walked for the other door. “Nows your time!”

She watched as her friends left, pulling Zhongli up by the arm and taking him with them.

She was sweating, doing everything she could to not look at you. Her hands gripping onto the hem of her shirt as she whistled.

“Did you mean it?”

“Hmm?”

She finally mustered up the courage to look you in your eyes, seeing you look at her with a nervous look.

“That you like me, did you mean that?”

She sighed, hand on her neck while she wiping the sweat her forehead before sighed.

‘You’re too deep in now, no point hiding it anymore.’

“Yes, I did. I really like you [Name], a lot.”

The nerves made her body tingle, anxiously waiting for your response with anticipation.

She saw you open your mouth before closing it, debating on what you wanted to say. Oh no, is she going to say no?

You stepped forward, your face being right in front of hers as you smiled. “Of course I like you, in fact I was going to tell you today actually.”

She watched as you brought your hand to her face, fingers holding her cheeks delicately as you brought your face closer to place a soft kiss on top of her nose.

You smiled, pulling away as you watched Hu Tao blush. Her cheeks were a bright rosy red as she gave you a derpy smile, too in love to respond.

“Would you want to.. I don’t know, go on a picnic somewhere?” You asked, bringing the food up to show her all the fruit you brought.

“Yes! Let’s go to Wuwang hill! They have loads of cool things there! Come one lets go!” Grabbing you hand, she pulled you along the streets of Liyue. Both of you smiling as you ran your way to your date spot, both as happy as could be in this moment.

They all watched as you guys ran, smiling as they watched her friend finally find the love she deserved.

“When are you going to get a girlfriend old man?”

Zhongli sighed, making his way back inside to finish his work.

“Not any time soon.”

Random things they do when their in love - Kaeya, Lisa, Amber

Notes: This just sounds like a really cute idea so…. y/n is just a crush and is also enby!

Word count - 600

Kaeya

He’ll try to hang out with you more often.

Oh, you’re going to do a commission just out of town? Well he’s free right now so why not help you? Just ran into you on the street? Well he was just about to go to Angel’s Share, why not come with him?

Of course, he’ll say this in his own, Kaeya-y way.

“Ah, Y/n, always a pleasure to see you! Oh, you were going to do a commission just outside of town? Well, I am free now. I could tag along, we could call it a date”

I headcanon that Kaeya’s love language is quality time because he’s often busy with work as the Cavalry Captain but he’ll set aside some time for you :)

Kaeya also tends to get even more flirty with you than with others.

He just likes to see you all flustered because of him!

“Can you really blame me for wanting to hang out with you often? I’ve yet to find someone more attractive than you. My, you’ve gotten so flustered at such a simple complement, Darling~”

If you don’t like his teasing and flirting then just tell him and he’ll tone it down a bit. He loves to tease but he doesn’t like to make you uncomfortable

Lisa

She’ll let you get away with a little more than others!

Lisa knows that she should act the same with you as with all the others who have overdue books but you’re just too cute! She can’t help but cut you a little bit of slack!

Only a day or two overdue tho, not too much, she still needs those books back.

“Awe hello there cutie~ Are you here to return your book? Oh my, it seems you're a day overdue. Well, it’s only a day, I suppose we could just sweep this under the rug. Though I would like a kiss as a thanks. You don’t have too of course”

Much like Kaeya, she’ll flirt with you a little more. She’ll be a little more toned down than Kaeya though.

She just thinks that your reactions are the cutest! Even when everything you do is cute in her eyes.

“Ah it’s cutie! Here to rent out another book? My, you’re always so eager to read, I quite admire it.”

Amber

She’d take you to go test out Barron Bunnies with her!

Amber loves Barron Bunny and she loves you so why not have the two in one place!

Recently, her Barron Bunnies have gotten bigger and better, with bigger explosions or different gunpowders in it for different explosions (She got the gunpowder from Klee) all to impress you!

“Hey y/n! I made a few additions to Barron Bunny since last time, want to come see? It’s always good to have a second opinion!”

If there’s any town event going on then you’ll be the first person she invites!

Whether it be Windblume or Windtrace, she’s inviting you! Just as friends, of course. Friends who do totally platonic things like stare lovingly at each other when the other isn’t looking. Completely platonic.

One time she even invited you to the Lantern Rite Festival in Liyue.

“Y/n! I heard about this thing in Liyue called the Lantern Rite Festival! Yeah, it might be in Liyue but there’s an easy path from Mondstadt to Liyue Harbor! And don't worry about hillicurils and slimes, you'll have the one and only Outrider of Mondstadt with you!"

Oh jeez Amber is so sweet! All adult women in Genshin make my heart beat a little faster -Dragon Queen

Synopsis: s/o with scars

Warnings: scars, and not proofread

Game/ fandom: genshin impact

Characters: ayaka, hu tao, and Ei

Pronouns for reader: gender neutral/ not mentioned

A/n: sorry for getting to this late, hope you don’t mind it Olive Garden 🥺🫒

— ayaka —

For whatever reason you have scars ayaka wants to hear it, if you’re willing to share of course. If it’s because of past fights, she wants to hear all your stories!

Specifically will kiss the scars on your arms, shoulders, and hands. Anywhere else and she’ll get super nervous.

Thinks you look intimidating, but super attractive with scars. She knows their bad, and that they definitely hurt… I mean they’re scars. But thinks they’re attractive.

— hu tao —

Probably is like “did you almost die from this one?” And points at a random scar. This happens everyday, even if she’s asked about all your scars.

Definitely knows where all your scars are, just cause she likes examining them. Thinks they look pretty.

Speaking of her thinking they look pretty, she will tell you that everyday. You could be cuddling and she’ll find a random scar on your chest and be like, “I like your scars. They look really pretty. Make you look prettier than you already are.” And then she’ll fall asleep. While you’re like •V• “ok.”

— Ei —

Like hu tao she knows where all your scars are

Will specifically kiss the scars in your tummy, back, and thighs. It’s her way of trying to fluster you.

I think she has a few scars herself, and is kinda self conscious about them, she thinks it’s dumb cause you look so beautiful with scars, and I mean… they’re just scars.

Definitely comes behind you to back hug you, and kisses any scars on your shoulder, moving your hair out of the way if your hair covers them. 

GANYU REQUEST TIME.. Ganyu with a s/o who loves to play with her hair, like braids it and stuff..

Ganyu

Ganyu jumps a little the first time you touch her hair, even though she doesn't want to seem tense at all, she can't really help it sometimes, instinctively thinking something had gotten stuck on her locks, or you were going to touch her horns or something... but she relaxes quickly enough.

When she lets herself unwind fully, she finds out that she really likes it! Ganyu isn't very used to a feeling like this, having such an intense schedule, so having you take care of her in such a way makes her melt rather easily. She tries to keep her posture mostly straight, to make your life easier if you were going to do something like braid it, but she finds out that's surprisingly hard.

Loves it especially after she's had a long day, she'll rarely outright ask for it, but with the way she tilts her head slightly at you, you can tell it'd do her good at the moment. Would walk around with all the braids you've done if she could, even if they aren't put together very skillfully.

if you wanna support my work, you can buy me a ko-fi or commission me!

fischl💓💕 pls

congrats on 100 followers! <3

awwww thank you anon!! (p.s. was very tired when i wrote this so sorry if its not that okay than usual)

💓- When they first know about their feelings about you

HAHAHA GAY PANIC, GAY PANIC, AHHHHHH AHHH AHHH PLS SEARCH THIS SONG THATS HER EXACT REACTION THE MOMENT SHE REALISES IT (THANKS OZ)

but ok seriously, she’s probably just at her house with Oz, rambling about you when Oz looks at her dead in the eye, and tells her

“Mein Fraulein, are you not in love with her?”

“What, Oz? Blasphemy! A mortal like y/n is not fit to earn my affection! I am the Princesszin Der Verurteilung, and I must marry someone of similar stature, to befit my status!”

“Are you sure though? You think about them, your heart beats faster around them, you blush easily around them, and most of all, you let down your guard around them, and let them in.”

“...”

“I’ll leave you to think about it, Princesszin.”

With a poof, Oz leaves Fischl alone on her bed.

She proceed to crawl to bed, but thoughts of you invade her every moment that night.

Needless to say, she did not get a good night’s sleep, and had caused you to worry about her sluggishness.

As she drifted to sleep in the morning, with you checking on her, she sighs internally

“Sigh... it does seem that I have fallen for y/n...”

💕- how they show affection

(a/n affection go brrrrrrrrr i dont need it)

dont pda. She shy. if you do it, she will instantly stop working. You learnt that after you pecked her lips in public.

She instantly crumbled and you took her back home.

And she was like, "Y/n! Please, do not do perform such affection outside closed doors, it is unfitting for me, as Princessin Der Verurteilung, to be so affectionate in public!"

*cue you being actually sad*

She instantly feels guilty and adds on that she didn't mean it, and has Oz explain that she's just so flustered by affection in public. But she doesn't want you to be upset at the thought of almost no pda

"Of course, you may still hold my hand and give me cheek kisses. Just, not too obviously, alright?"

She rarely would show pda in public unless she's jealous, missing you a lot, or nearly lost you and is panicking so badly. Only on rare occasions like your birthday or your anniversary would she give you a public peck on the lips.

She loves being around you at home, to make up for keeping up her persona and all. She'll be literally clinging onto you like a koala. Except when you have to go to the toilet, yes.

Gets all shy when receiving kisses, and even more so when she tries to give you kisses. She loves them, give it to them. She feels less pressured if you close your eyes though.

I think she would like hugs too, especially as she gives back hugs so that she can show affection without blushing in front of you.

comforting you when you cry.

a/n; rushed to get this published in a day bc i think we all could use some comforting :> i hope you enjoy this and that it brings a smile to your face!

please reblog ! it helps a lot :)

AETHER quickly pulls you into a hug, stroking your head while a jumble of questions spill out of his mouth. if you're unwilling to answer, he doesn't pressure you, but he remains embracing you until you calm down.

ALBEDO envelops you in a warm hug, his blonde strands of hair tickling the top of your head. "i don't know why you're upset..." he murmurs while entwining his hands with yours, "but studies have shown hugs can make people feel better, and that's what i want for you."

AMBER freaks out, cupping your face with her gloved hands and pressing her forehead against yours to remind you that she's always there for you. she even lets you cuddle baron bunny, although she pretends to be upset later that you like the stuffed toy more than her.

AYAKA rarely deals with outbursts like this as the representative of the kamisato clan, so she's not entirely sure what to do. however, she sits beside you gracefully, holding your hand tightly and squeezing it every few minutes as a wordless reassurance that she is there for you.

lightning flashes, thunder booms and the sky begins to darken when BAAL sees you like this. the electro archon wants nothing more than to strike down those who hurt you, but she won't leave your side until there's a smile on your face once more - there's no point in eternity without you.

BARBARA is wonderful at consoling you, and she hugs you warmly before beginning to sing a gentle song, petting your head as you lay in her lap. her voice is mellifluous and comforting, and you drift off to sleep as she presses a kiss on your head, reminding you that tomorrow will be a better day.

at first, BEIDOU may not realise how seriously sad you are, inviting you to come drown your sorrows in some drinks with her. but after noticing how you decline, she crouches beside you and tells you that, "there's no treasure in the sea a pirate could find that's more precious than you are to me."

BENNETT worries that his bad luck has brought you misfortune, but when you manage to mumble out that it isn't his fault, he still sticks right by you. while he's too nervous to touch you and make things worse, he grins widely at you and thanks you for staying with him even when things were rough - "you're the best member of benny's adventure team, and my good luck charm!"

upon seeing you, CHILDE'S mind instantly flashes to every single one of his enemies that could have hurt you, and while he dashes to wrap you in a hug, his thoughts rush to ways to murder those who dared to hurt you. his chin balances on top of your head while his long arms surround you, keeping you warm and seemingly blocking out all your negativity.

CHONGYUN gets very worried, and though he isn't the best at comforting, he lets you bury your head in his shoulder and cry your eyes out. for once, the proximity doesn't make him heat up, because he's far too concerned for you to worry about that. he also offers you an icy popsicle, because that's how he usually cheers himself up, and he wants you to be happy again.

DAINSLEIF panics, but he doesn't show it as he dashes to your side like a heroic knight. he isn't sure how to handle situations like this, so he awkwardly pats your back and says, "you're strong enough to get through this. i... may not believe in gods, but i have faith in you." his starry coat swirls around you both like a blanket, and even though the gestures of comfort feel alien to him, he hopes you know he's trying his best.

DILUC trembles, hand reaching for his vision as white-hot anger rushes through him. but he recalls that you're the priority, and wraps his arms around you. the scent of his cologne surrounds you, and you bury your head in his chest - he doesn't mind when you wet his shirt, and he murmurs a soft "i love you," in your ear as a caring reminder.

in DIONA'S mind, a million alarm bells are going off, and her ears prick up as she hisses under her breath at the thought of someone harming you. to you directly, however, she mixes your favourite drink and offers it to you, muttering, "i hope you like the drink... please feel better soon. though it's not like i care!"

EULA runs to your side, elegance forgotten in the fear clouding her mind that something has happened to you. she isn't very keen on physical affection due to her upbringing as a noble, but now she throws away her hesitation and hugs you while vowing, "i will exact vengeance on whoever hurt you!"

FISCHL cannot find it in her to burst into a monologue when she sees your huddled figure. her gloved hand traces your cheek, and trails a stroke down your hair. oz perches on your shoulder, his ticklish feathers ruffling your cheek, and when you look up at her, the prinzessin offers you a small smile, "as royalty, you're my favourite subject."

GANYU drops all the paperwork she's been carrying, the sheets flying into the air like snow. she couldn't care less about them though, as she plops down beside you, tilting your face to hers with worry glimmering in her eyes. realising you're not hurt, she exhales a sigh of relief and hugs you with a whisper, "i'm here for you."

GOROU is by your side in the blink of an eye, a low growl escaping his throat as he scans your surroundings. his ears are flattened, and his arms are thrust protectively around you. upon sensing the lack of danger, he nuzzles into your cheek, his hair caressing your cheek - he doesn't need words to let you know he loves you.

HU TAO is actually very good at comforting you, though her playful demeanor makes her seem like the opposite. she lets you cry till it feels like your tear ducts are dry, and then she starts cracking jokes. they're stupid, and half don't even make sense, but they put a smile on your face, and when she notices your expression, she grins, "there you are."

JEAN isn't the dandelion knight and acting grandmaster for no reason, she's immediately beside you, uttering sweet words which sound like honey. barely a minute passes and she's already mopped up your tears and helped you calm down with soothing advice and reminders. she even lets you cry onto her shoulder if you'd like, without a word of complaint even when her uniform sleeve is stained with tears.

KAZUHA hugs you tightly, the type of hug which feels like he's never going to let you go, the type of hug which feels like you're going to be okay, that things will get better. even his fountain of poetic speak dries up now as he pulls you impossibly closer, "you will be okay, and you'll come out of this stronger than before."

KAEYA can relate all too well to your predicament, he sees himself in your tears and shaking figure. so, he held you the way he's always wanted to be held, with your head in the crook of his neck as you sob quietly. for once, he doesn't make any sly, flirty comments, he stays silent as you cry. but once you've calmed down, he teases you by using his vision to make his hands, which are still holding you, freezing cold.

while KEQING may primarily be a busy woman in charge of running the nation, that doesn't mean she doesn't know how to handle emotional issues. she sits beside you, one hand sliding to hold yours as she starts telling you about her day to get your mind off the problem. it works, and when you've calmed down, she's the perfect person to get advice from about your troubles.

KLEE is quite confused, but she does her best to make you feel better. "hey, would you like a hug? my mom always says those help put a smile on anybody's face! or maybe we could go fishblasting? that definitely makes klee smile! klee wants you to smile again, so let's go!"

a small hydro fish wiggles in front of your nose, and you already know that KOKOMI is in the room with you. as she kneels down beside you, her hand cups your cheek, and her sea blue eyes, shining with concern, meet yours. a small smile curves her lips, "you're so strong, you know that? i'm proud of you."

LISA pulls you into a hug, placing her chin on your head as she rubs comforting circles onto your back. she never says a word as you sob into her torso, but once you've cooled down, electro energy begins to fizz around her fingers, "so, who did this to you?"

LUMINE silently sits beside you, one arm wrapping around your shoulder to pull you close, letting you lean against her for stability as you cry your eyes out. it's not much, but she doesn't move, and honestly that helps remind you that she isn't going to leave you alone. she's also a very good listener to vent to, as she will never interrupt, and only offer advice if asked to.

when MIKO caught you, you thought she would laugh at you. however, her reaction was the polar opposite, as she made you a cup of tea and sat beside you before beginning to read a book. once your sniffles had quietened down, she turned to you, "now, would you like to talk about it? i've got the next millenium to listen."

MONA is quite awkward in terms of dealing with people, distancing herself from people due to her status as an honourable astrologer didn't do much for her social skills. however, with you, she crouches beside you and pats your head, "are you okay?" she's even kind enough to spend her hard-earned money on you, and she's always strapped for cash, "hey, i just got some money. would you like to go out and eat? my treat."

NINGGUANG may be the tianquan, but you will always come first, you're just that important to her. when she sees you crying, she tilts your face upwards and swipes her thumb across your cheek to dry your tears. she then proceeds to hug you and pat your back, "you know you can tell me anything, right? also if you want anything that might make you feel better, just say the word and i'll buy it."

NOELLE sits down beside you, placing the basket of laundry she was carrying on her other side. she hugs you, and the warmth you feel chases away your last remnants of sadness. it's even better when she says she'll cook your favourite dish to help cheer you up, noelle would do anything if it meant you would feel better.

QIQI has zero clue what to do, so she crouches beside you and just... stares at you for a few minutes. however, the next moment, she extends one hand and pets your head, "qiqi wants y/n to smile. come, qiqi will take y/n to look at finches. finches make qiqi happy. qiqi hopes they make y/n happy too."

RAZOR nuzzles into your cheek and neck, his fuzzy hair and hood tickling you and prompting a laugh to escape your lips. he looks up at you inquisitively, tilting his head before saying, "y/n, don't be sad. razor... go hunt meat for y/n. y/n is razor lupical." razor hopes you can understand what he's trying to tell you, because he wants to help you in any way he can.

although distant to everyone else, ROSARIA actually pats your back and stays beside you while you cry. she doesn't say anything, because she isn't that good with comforting words unlike all the other nuns, but she stays. and her unmoving presence is enough to send you into tears all over again, because she mutters a promise to you, "i won't leave, no matter what."

SARA is definitely not the best at displaying affection, but for you, she always puts in as much affection as she can. when she sees you crying, anger causes her to clench her fist, but she hides it and rushes to your side to give you a warm hug, pressing her cheek against yours, "you're not alone, okay?"

SAYU is clueless as to what to do to comfort someone, so instead she just grabs your hands and says, "come on, let's go have a nap. people always think clearer after they sleep on it." she doesn't mean to be blunt, she just genuinely thinks that sleeping will help you think of other solutions to your problems.

SCARAMOUCHE starts cursing loudly and threatening murder at the top of his voice, it's likely that people on the other side of teyvat could hear him. after proclaiming how he's going to murder whoever did this to you, he rushes to your side and hugs you tightly. it's a hug which conveys everything he can't say out loud, 'i hope you're okay.'

SUCROSE is very distressed, as she plops beside you and starts fidgeting with her fingers while her other hand massages repetitive motions onto your back. after a minute, your sobbing is unbearable for her, because she hates you being sad, so she tries to distract you by talking about alchemy. spoiler alert, it works, but the combination of her voice and the rhythm of her massage caused you to fall asleep in her lap.

THOMA is the number one fixer in inazuma, and this applies to emotional problems too. in the snap of a finger, he's prepared your favourite food, a tissue box and his attention, in case you'd like to rant to him. he's always willing to listen, and most of the time his advice is actually quite good, and he also gives great hugs.

when VENTI sees you sad, his archon side takes over. instead of just being mischievous, he also becomes more understanding and caring. he lets you lie on his lap, humming the melody to your favourite song softly while his hands stroke your head. when you've calmed down, he's also skilled at making silly faces to try and get you to laugh.

XIANGLING disappears after shoving guoba in your arms and telling you he's great for hugging when you're sad. a minute later, though, she reappears with a brand new plate of your favourite food, whipped up by her specially for you. she'll feed you so that you're too busy eating to worry about crying, and soon enough your sadness is chased away by the amount of love she adds into her cooking.

XIAO is definitely not the best at dealing with emotional situations, but he's been reading up on how to interact with mortals. so when he sees you like this, his first instinct is to hug you, which he does. when you sob into his shoulder, he's not sure what to do, so he pets your head before whispering so softly you can barely hear it, "you've defeated far worse things than this, and you will continue to be the strongest mortal i know. i believe in you." he also polishes his polearm in case he needs to break his 'no harming mortals' rule.

XINGQIU lets you lean on his shoulder and cry, and he also keeps one arm around your torso as a symbol of how much he cares for you. with his other hand, he reads his current favourite novel out loud to you, and if you're lucky, he'll even go off on a tangent about how he would have written this scene if he was the author, as well as explain almost every scene in painstaking detail. by the time he's done, your head will be spinning so much you won't have any energy to waste on being sad.

XINYAN hugs you and strokes your back as you sob. she's moderately hot thanks to her pyro vision, so a hug from her is the definition of a warm hug. she even strums her guitar while singing the lyrics to your favourite song softly, like an acoustic cover of it which helps you relax and realise that maybe your problems weren't as big as they first seemed.

YANFEI lets you lie down in her lap, gazing up at her with tears glittering in your eyes. whether or not you're still sobbing, yanfei holds your hands with a reassuring smile and starts narrating her day, going into detail about all the interesting cases she's done before. and if she sees you getting sleepy, tired after all that crying, she starts reciting liyuean law, which of course sends you off to dreamland in seconds.

YOIMIYA is full of energy, but when she sees you sad it's almost like all that energy got zapped out of her in a second. she's by your side immediately, cupping your cheeks and checking you all over to see if you're hurt while speaking a million sentences a minute. it would be overwhelming if it wasn't just her way of showing how worried she is for you. that night, you can be sure yoimiya releases a custom firework just for you, in the shape of a smiley face in your favourite colour.

ZHONGLI may have lived for centuries, but as a mortal he is at a loss for what to do in a situation like this. however, he tries his best, and lets you lie on him wherever you choose; be it his shoulder, lap or chest. he's very attentive to what you want, so if you want a tissue he'll fetch it immediately, and he does anything you want until you calm down. it's adorable to see, honestly.

Hello I saw your 1k event and I’m like woah (as a newbie genshin writer on tumblr) can I request Aquarius, ganyu, hc scenario and fluff? Tyty

coming to you (hc scenario)

penpal: tysm for requesting! welcome to the genshin writing community btw <3

prompt: aquarius the water-bearer, telepathy soulmate au

pairing/s: ganyu x gn!reader

sypnosis: in which you try to navigate your lover who doesn't know your arrival in liyue harbor.

includes: no angst/just fluff, spoilers to inazuma archon quest (prologue - chapter one), reader is from inazuma, comfort (?)

you decided to meet ganyu the moment your homeland made some major changes thanks to the raiden shogun.

as a vision-wielder, you couldn't afford to let the vision hunt decree get their hands on your vision. especially when you heard from your townsfolk that people will forget certain memories and ambition when their visions got taken away.

you prefer to give your soul over your memories of your soulmate.

and so, you immediately contacted your dear friend, thoma, who suggested fleeing from the nation with the help of the crux fleet.

after arranging a deal with beidou, you started packing your things and get ready to go to liyue harbor the next day.

however, your neighbor snitched to the vision hunters about you, causing a few hunters to barge in your home and try to take your vision away hours before you could go to beidou.

one thing led to another, you immediately fled from your home as a vigilante and a now wanted person in the vision hunt decree.

but you could care less if your archon is after you, you could care less if you're considered a criminal, all you care about is to get away from your home and go find your lover, now having a chance to finally meet her without a worry about going back.

you didn't bother telling ganyu about your situation, not wanting to make her worry. it wouldn’t hurt to make this a surprise, right?

your heart skips a beat as you step foot on the boat, listening to your lover's ranting about her duties in your head with a smile on your face. you wondered what she would think if she sees you.

would she gladly let you stay in liyue harbor despite your status in inazuma?

"i'm sure ganyu would let you stay with her," beidou reassured you when you confronted her about your conflicted feelings. "i know her. she's not the type to judge you for something you're not."

the captain's words helped you feel at ease a bit, but the doubt still stands in your head.

it wasn't until you arrived to liyue harbor when the negative thoughts stopped.

"you'll most likely find her by yujing terrace or somewhere in the jade chamber." beidou explains, stopping you from walking out of the boat for a moment. "if you can't find her, go to dihua marsh or ask one of the millelith guards."

and so began your journey in liyue harbor.

it didn't take you too long to find your way to yujing terrace, the moment you stepped foot onto the area, you started looking around, hoping to see someone who you think is ganyu.

"hey uhm," ganyu suddenly speaks up in your head, causing you to flinch in surprise. "i heard what happened to inazuma. are you okay?"

crap, how did she find out so fast?

you aren't sure what to say, afraid of what ganyu would think of you. should you lie to her and give her more reasons to possibly despise you? should you just suck it up and tell her the truth?

"...i'm uh, i'm okay, don't worry." you said in your head reassuringly, looking around your surroundings anxiously as you think about what to say next.

you then let out a sigh in defeat. "i'm in liyue harbor."

that was the last time you heard ganyu.

you began to panic when you couldn't hear her voice after your confession, frantically walking around yujing terrace as you try to call her in your head and ignore the strange looks people gave you. what if she didn't want you here? what if she's hurt?

"why hello dearie," you turn around and spotted an old woman behind you with a gentle smile. "i couldn't help but notice you walking around this area. are you perhaps in need of help?" she asks.

"have you met a woman named ganyu?" you questioned in a rushed tone. "i'm her uhm, soulmate and i came to this city for her, but i don't know where she went and i'm really really worried."

"of course, ganyu's a lovely woman." the old woman said with a chuckle. "she actually went down to feiyun slope hours ago. though, it's been a wh–"

without letting the elder woman finish her sentence, you immediately thanked the woman and run towards the stairs, your heart beating faster as you take a few more steps down. you desperately have never wanted your legs to go faster until now, the thought of meeting your destined other after waiting for so long has never felt so sweet.

you stopped your tracks when you spotted a blue-haired woman in the middle of the bridge near bubu pharmacy, panting from exhaustion.

it couldn't be her, right?

deep down, you knew the exhausted woman who's a few steps away from you. the description of your appearances of the two of you that you gave to each other long ago were similar to the woman's appearance in front of you.

you watched as the woman suddenly looks up at you, her eyes widening as well from seeing you.

"...ganyu," you try calling her in your head. "if you can hear me... please tell me you weren't kidding about having blue hair and horns."

the gasp the woman let out went not unnoticed by you, causing your heart to swarm at your discovery.

"y...y/n?" the woman– no, ganyu– asks, slowly taking a few steps towards you with a disbelief look plastered on her face. "is that you?"

you were standing a few feet from her, but in a blink of an eye, you somehow found yourself running towards her and tackle her with a hug.

everyone who was by the area noticed your encounter, now curious as to what's happening to the infamous secretary of the qixing as they watch you and ganyu wrapping your arms around the other.

"thank rex lapis you're alright." she speaks up as she relaxes from your touch, your heart flutters from the sounds of her beautiful voice. “i was so worried.”

"hello to you too ganyu," you whispered, closing your eyes as you continue to hug your lover with a relieved smile.

"i'm here now."

Oho yes Raiden request incoming. How about Raiden like being reminded of her old friends and how they're no longer with her anymore which causes a break in her usual guard around the reader. This results in Raiden pleading for the reader to never leave her and just soft fluff from there.

Well this request was awkward. If you don't wanna follow exactly, go ahead and do just that

A/N: I'll format this post some other time lmao. Also, Reader appears very suddenly, I know that, but that's because I didn't know how to transition the scene lmao. Also-also, the relationship between Reader and Raiden is unclear. So feel free to imagine it whatever you want it to be.

Words: 456

Raiden:

Every morning brings about pain in her heart—aches and pangs of all kinds. This pain pressures her further to strive for eternity. Eternity is nearest unto Heaven after all, right?

The winter morning freezes in time, soft snow falling—muting the world it coats. She gazes out upon the white-painted world before her from atop her room balcony. She grits her teeth, feeling her heart swell with desperation for the old times with her dearest friends. A fist of her own clenches, resting on her chest, fingernails threatening to break her snowy pale skin.

She sniffs. Whether it's from the cold or her emotions, she doesn't know. It's both, it's definitely both, she concludes. Her eyes become dusky and hazy with dark thoughts and intense desperation. The world grows fuzzier and fuzzier with a white glaze. She gulps and frowns, collapsing to her knees and clenching her fists.

You appear at her side, a warm and fluffy wine-colored coat in your arms. You unfold the coat and wrap it around her shoulders. Out of respect, you do not speak to her. You turn, ready to leave her be, but she clutches at the edges of your clothing—looking up at you with knitted eyebrows and parted lips. Desperation fills her glassy violet eyes, tears threatening to spill.

"Please, don't leave me." She whimpers, voice barely above a whisper.

You blink, nodding slowly and returning to her side. You settle down onto your knees next to her, gazing at her with a diligent stare. Your eyes soften out of concern for her, wondering what's gotten her so down and out all of a sudden.

With hesitance, your hand reaches out to her. When your hand makes contact with her soft violet hair and pets her oh so softly, her eyes go wide. Yet, she's quick to relax—sighing in content as her eyes flutter shut. A soft smile caresses her thin lips and rosy tint coats her cheeks.

And for once, the morning is different than all the others. It's soft as the fluffy snow beyond you yet warm as a long-awaited embrace. She relishes in these quiet moments, leaning her head toward your comforting hand like a cat. You swear she could start purring at any moment.

Her eyes flitter open, staring out to the snowy landscape before her striking gaze flickers over to you—sparing you a pure smile and adoring gaze.

"Thank you. Let's...stay here a while longer."

Ganyu and Eula with a tall S/O

I have been fine other than my neck trying to commit the murder on my body.

And yes you can!

Estimated Height: 5'3 (1.6 m)

- Honestly she'd probably be used to people being taller than her, S/O being no exception.

- Height is rarely an issue and in fact usually helps, with Ganyu asking S/O to grab an item from a tall shelf and whatnot.

- She especially wouldn't mind when it came to cuddling, as being the little spoon would feel very comfortable.

- Beidou would be the only one to tease her about the height difference, but as for everyone else they probably wouldn't say anything.

(Beidou) "Hey, you and S/O got to-"

(Ganyu) "Beidou, I am NOT using them as a Crow's nest."

Estimated Height: 5'8 (1.72 m)

(Shit, she's an inch taller than me. I WILL HAVE MY VENGEANCE ON HER...WHENEVER SHE GETS A RERUN.)

- Eula would feel mildly annoyed sometimes when she realizes her S/O is taller than her.

- Sometimes S/O would tease her about it, which led to remarks getting revenge on S/O's height.

(Eula) "Hmph, we will see who has the last laugh when your height becomes your downfall!"

(S/O) "Gotta reach me first!"

(Eula) "DO NOT TEMPT ME."

- Otherwise, it wouldn't be too big of a deal.

- In private, Eula doesn't mind being the little spoon. It feels weird for her to be held in a manner where she can just finally relax and be herself.

- She melts into S/O's arms, her head on their chest, smiling. This wasn't so bad.

- ...Mostly.
